Leaving the kitchen and into the living room I pushed Mia’s feet off the couch to sit next to her. The baffled look she gave me almost made me burst out laughing but I held it in, “Want some?”239Please respect copyright.PENANAgccddsA3ej
239Please respect copyright.PENANAzPnot1ayIa
She groaned and crossed her arms, obviously annoyed with me, “Why can’t you just leave me alone. I got the stupid measurements for the stupid dress. I was even cordial whenever you talked to me.”239Please respect copyright.PENANAvDu0k2hI15
239Please respect copyright.PENANAJGyDSZpJfp
“Saying only yes or no isn’t being cordial. I don’t want you to be a robot but you shouldn’t be a little asshole either.”
239Please respect copyright.PENANAmeJ12qy3g4
“Why are you even doing all of this? We are not related at all.”239Please respect copyright.PENANAsEJUyJkmhr
239Please respect copyright.PENANAnZcJejwtha
“Doesn’t mean we can’t get along. Plus I know this is all a facade. You genuinely are nice and especially because of your dad.”239Please respect copyright.PENANAsIfwsbJChK
239Please respect copyright.PENANAvIPeUqb4xB
“What does that mean? I’m my own person.”239Please respect copyright.PENANArc3GsDLmJw
239Please respect copyright.PENANAK7MmCzL6Qu
I sighed and put down my plate, sad that I didn't make more. I mean who doesn’t like midday waffles, “Yes but we get most of our traits from our parents whether we like it or not. You are kind. Even though you don’t want my mom to see and act like a little shit to me, I notice the nice little gestures you do after only being here for a day.”
239Please respect copyright.PENANAk5aGJdyNVP
“So your stalking?”239Please respect copyright.PENANAea8ykyInyV
239Please respect copyright.PENANAV6Xku9AFlc
“No, just observant. People who are hiding something from a certain someone only look out for them and not the other people who may see what they're doing.”
239Please respect copyright.PENANAjSAUJEl6LD
“Yea yea I need a lecture right now. They don’t even notice it.”239Please respect copyright.PENANAs0nhTm1xes
239Please respect copyright.PENANAPZnDv6yxGq
“Because you don’t want them to. I grew up without my parents. Even though I was fine it was tough. Don’t push them away just because Mia,” She pushed herself further into the couch and quietly pondered to herself. I wasn’t sure how long she’d continue keeping to herself, “So are we on equal playing fields now?”239Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6mIJKo57D
239Please respect copyright.PENANAfLEb8pB4ue
“Sure you can say that.”239Please respect copyright.PENANAKVhu1YoXl1
239Please respect copyright.PENANAdA7wobYEUu
“I’m glad doing this worked. I had another plan that wouldn’t lead to you being happy.”239Please respect copyright.PENANA51dWuo14qG
239Please respect copyright.PENANAsZI5xqtZxn
“Do I even want to know?”
239Please respect copyright.PENANAUtlAM0hiRQ
“Nope but it had a lot more lectures involved,” I got up and stretched then bent over to pick my plate up, “I’m gonna go find Faye and see what she’s been up to.”239Please respect copyright.PENANAu4OhVV8YUp
239Please respect copyright.PENANAZHbcWw3rnb
I was walking off to the kitchen and stopped when I heard her say, “Are you gonna go dress shopping while your here too?”239Please respect copyright.PENANAwOxVfP6bBK
239Please respect copyright.PENANAn2rKhfdTUL
A smile formed on my lips, not one that was smug or anything, “I don’t see why not. You wanna come with me and mom?”239Please respect copyright.PENANAMCG07ZmXao
239Please respect copyright.PENANAc37uhEhpir
“Yea,” And that right there is progress.

I huddled closer to Faye feeling wind tickle up under the length of my dress. She placed an arm around me as we both looked into the distance. We sat in comfortable silence only watching the sunset after having walked to and around the park, “The view is so nice. Wouldn’t mind waking up to this and a naked woman beside me.”239Please respect copyright.PENANAZdMwtpqahN
239Please respect copyright.PENANAXOfKdiPO7W
“Oh and just who is the naked woman going to be?”239Please respect copyright.PENANAso8F7KcSN3
239Please respect copyright.PENANAOIUOd5oti8
“Hmmm well she’s a bit stern but nice when your on her good side. She’s the same height as me but wears heels so often that she sees herself as the tallest one.”239Please respect copyright.PENANAjINGxkd1PQ
239Please respect copyright.PENANABjHL5I1QjJ
“I have no idea what your talking about.”239Please respect copyright.PENANAx1Mm6Bpngg
239Please respect copyright.PENANAnvGkbhowm5
“Yes right she also won’t admit to things even when most of the time I'm right. She likes gardening and forcing me to bring all the plants back out when winter ends and when it begins. She likes to continuously watch me struggle at yoga.”239Please respect copyright.PENANAmGdDuYfU1w
239Please respect copyright.PENANAv9A1lkYduf
“Only because it's adorable.”239Please respect copyright.PENANAQ49YyXFO6q
239Please respect copyright.PENANAxFJAcAEuxr
“Mhm. Her hair gets really curly when it’s wet so she gets mad whenever i throw her into the pool or after i seduced her into shower sex.”239Please respect copyright.PENANACLt3sf7F8Z
239Please respect copyright.PENANALUGdPsRKEk
“It’s very annoying to deal with.”239Please respect copyright.PENANAgoZ31lkIrI
239Please respect copyright.PENANAtWTxR55Gom
“But like you said, it's ‘adorable’. She likes reading in the little spare time I give her and endlessly talking about the philosophy she studies just for fun.”
239Please respect copyright.PENANAN95yYiusyr
“Which is what I was trying to do earlier but someone just had too much energy to leave me be.”
239Please respect copyright.PENANAnO1PGnAYRG
“It’s your fault for looking like you wanted to be bothered. And anyway, under the naked eye my woman has two tattoos. They’re fun things to trace after a night of fun activities.”239Please respect copyright.PENANA7SHMQidzG4
239Please respect copyright.PENANAYdDGwUaA5i
“Oh? And what are they? I might’ve seen them before.”
239Please respect copyright.PENANANnGOTshU0U
“One is a sword with roses surrounding it on the side of her stomach. And the others are just thorns on the side of the upper right thigh. What are your favorite flowers in case I need to lighten up your day.”239Please respect copyright.PENANArJFH1d7ySZ
239Please respect copyright.PENANAwM9JmzeqvD
“Ghost Orchids or any orchid maybe.”
239Please respect copyright.PENANAuB0BNjIIge
I looked down at my phone, noting it to be almost nine. And with the sunset ending soon we’d be submerged in darkness since the park somehow doesn’t have lamps or anything, “Should we make our way back? I don’t want us to be here when it's dark out.”
239Please respect copyright.PENANAy73GZZX77b
“Only after you tell me who this woman is.”239Please respect copyright.PENANAq73jm6YLV6
239Please respect copyright.PENANAsScnsZrq0b
I tried getting up but she pulled me back down and I was surprised she did so so easily. I scoffed and just laughed it off knowing the little things like this is why I love to bother her so much, “It’s just the amazing and intelligent Faye Candice Hart.”
239Please respect copyright.PENANAD6GBrhC9bS
“Just?”239Please respect copyright.PENANARTdlwpUF46
239Please respect copyright.PENANAIT5CXDTjJM
“Oh will you just please.”
239Please respect copyright.PENANAlKF9TI30Ql
“Should I get up and curtsey?”239Please respect copyright.PENANAzk7zTB90Pe
239Please respect copyright.PENANAU3zUp0roSC
“Whatever helps you sleep better at night honey.”
239Please respect copyright.PENANAD8cbcnyEFz
She snickered and pulled me in tighter, “I love you so much.”239Please respect copyright.PENANAgkwvH2dzIs
239Please respect copyright.PENANAtq0XKNvvje
“I love you too.”239Please respect copyright.PENANACWcdL3PLdI
239Please respect copyright.PENANAAdDQ1g3i82
We both whipped our heads around to a sound far off in the distance and we took that as our cue to leave, “Lets go before your new friend sends out a search party for you. You do know she questioned me like I was under investigation before we left, right?”239Please respect copyright.PENANAFQPJZ5tfFh
239Please respect copyright.PENANAOfG8vQxSTF
“Yes and it was absolutely hilarious.”
